Autumn Toms is a third-year Earth and Atmospheric Science major with an interest in meteorology. In the past year, she worked with Dr. Lynch-Stieglitz’s lab group to determine changes in the southeast Atlantic oxygen minimum zone during the last glacial maximum. She now researches with GTRI’s Severe Storms Research Center to determine how the peak rotational velocity from radar of tornadoes in the southeast United States compares to the recorded EF rating. This summer Autumn will research at the Marine Meteorology Division of the US Naval Research Laboratory, where she will work on a project concerning tropical cyclones. Autumn will also serve as the next president of StORM Club, Georgia Tech’s AMS student chapter. She enjoys taking photos of the sky, hiking, and listening to audiobooks.
